Dear Mom,
Thank you,
You are a mom like no other. No one understands our bond and our craziness. You gave me life. A life I would not change for the world. We have had many ups and downs but we still make it through the day without killing each other. I think that is a good thing.
Growing up you have been my rock. You did not abandon me like others did. You held on to me and made sure I was loved, bathed, clothed, fed, and had a roof over my head. I grew up learning who I was as a person and you taught me not to let others opinions get to me. You showed me to be a strong, independent women. I can not thank you enough.
Thank you for being there for me through all of the volleyball games, the tears, the award ceremonies, and field trips. Thank you for showing me you are one of my number fans as well as always being there. Thank you for having faith in me all the time no matter how many times I may have disappointed you.
We may not have had the picture perfect life growing up, but no matter what you made it work. You managed to keep a roof over our head no matter how hard it was. You managed to feed us food even if we were unsure where the meal was coming from. You managed to give us money for school field trips even though they were not in the budget and you simply wanted us to have the school experience and make friends. You are so strong and I can not be happier to call you my mom.
With going off to college I have learned that everyone will need their parents at some point in their life. I need you to send me packages so I know no one has forgotten me. I have you send me money so I can but food, and be able to do my laundry. You never say no to me. When you do, I understand why. You are my rock and I can not thank you enough for helping me and being there for me.
I hope with me being away at school you have learned that you will always need your little girl. No matter what life throws our way we still manage to find our way back to each other's arms and be there for each other through the thick and thin.
I love you so much, and simply thank you for the life you have given me.
Sincerely,
Your little girl
